may be thrown, and how much we NAV

such crisis to us, but our children may
be thrown into some such strait He
who is in Christian manner hospitahle
has free pass through all Christendom.
1t may be that you will have been dead
fifty years before any such stress shall
come upon one of your descendants; but
do you not suppose that God can remem-
Der fifty years? and the knuckle of the
grandchild will be heard against the
door of some stranger, and that door will
open, and it will be talked over in
heaven, and it will be said: THAT mans
grandfather, fifty years ago, gave shelter
to stranger, and now strangers door
is open for grandson.
Among the Greeks, after entertaining
and being entertained, they take a piece
of lead and cut it in two, and the host
takes one half of the piece of lead and
the guest takes the other half as they
part. These two pieces of lead are
handed down from generation to genera
ton, and from family to family, and
after while, perhaps one of the families
in want or in trouble go out with this one
piece of lead and find the other family
with the corresponding piece of lead, and
no sooner is the tally completed than the
old hospitality is aroused and eternal
friendship pledged. So the memory of
Christian hospitality will go down from
generation to generation, and from fam
lily to family, and the tally will never be
lost, neither in this world nor the world
to come.
Mark this: The day will come when
we will all be turned out of doors

Hostetter's Stomach Bitters are emphatically
a genial restorative. The changes which this
great botanic remedy produces in the disord-

On this account it Is admirably adapted to per-
sons of delicate constitution and weak nerves,

a child about fifteen months old, it was put in
a casket covered with blue velvet attached
with plated nails, the lids being fixed on by
thumscrews. The parents having experienced
much trouble, three or four men undertook to
dig the grave gratis thus expressing their sym
patliy. The corpse and mourncrs were con-

ter following on foot, as they reached the
graveyard they alighted and assembled around
the grave. Two chairs were brought from
neighboring house and placed 10 receive the
little casket which was then taken from the
wagon and placed thereon. The lid was un-
| screwed and slipped far enough back to ex-
pose the little wax like face, a piece Of muslin
which had lain over it was tcnderly drawn
back by the gentle hand Of some sympathetic
friend. The mother supported by her hus-
band, approached, bent over and imprinted
the last fond kiss on its cold unfecling brow.
and was led back 10 a seat overwhelmed with
grief at her loss. The muslin was again re-
placed by the same gentle hand, the lid
slipped in lis place and screwed on, the minis
Ter then announced the name and age Of the
child, stating the day hour and minute of lis
deceasc, a few verses were then read from the
fourth chapter Of Paul's first epistle to the

prayer, the caskct was then lowered into the
grave and covered in, another hymn ''The
Sweet Bye and Bye" was then sung, the ben

OUR MARSHALL.
We have a city marshall here

We have a city marshall here
With star upon his breast,
And when rough gets full Of beer,
He'll take him TO his rest.
And when he collects the taxes,
From residents of this town.
He curious questions asks
What every one doth own.
And when drunk on sidewalk sleeps,
His eyes are quick and sure,
He slyly TO his prey creeps
And puts him through the door,
And If fellow shows 6ght-you bet
Our marshal will be on it;
He makes his prisoners soon to fret,
For he'll hit him on his bonnet.
And when at night the citizens sleep,
All in their downy cots,
lie may be in snow ten feet deep,
A looking out for sots.
vi IL hre breaks out you know
He'll loudly ring the bell;
Or if gale should begin to blow,
And it happens sign has fell
He'll break the news next morning,
To the man that owns that sign
And he, all expenses scorning,
Will ask him to stay and dine.
And when election hot is held,
In city precinct gay,
You'll see many an opponent fellcd
On next election day.
Success TO wearer of Star and Stick
That walks about SO freely,
If he ever should get sick,
He'll die like Horace Greely.
And then he'll 60 away above
Where no criminals wages war,
And where no person they e'er shove,
The victims of star.
